hello i'm back from hiatus and finally into blogging!! it had been a very eventful month indeed. =)

4th dec: tjc prom night [starlight romance]
personally, i didn't really enjoy it. not all the photos with me. my camera had to run out of battery even before I started using it. :\ still waiting for yihui to transfer all the zi lian photos. even so, i won't be uploading those so these are all that i'll be posting. :P

20th dec: SACC's first Celebrate Christmas in Singapore (CCIS) at ngee ann city.
with items put up by the choir, chinese congre dance of course, the youth dancers with the dance, angelis choreographed by grace. =) we, the angels along with our wings were almost like mascots that day. everybody were taking pictures of/with us. haha..

25-28th dec: shopping trip in bangkok
with my sister and her friends. out of the 7 of us, 4 are teachers, 1 banker, 1 who works in a medical lab and lastly, me, the loserish jc graduate. haha. but it was kinda fun though. we went pahtpong (wrong spelling), the red light district in bangkok at night. and for one night, we had a thai friend bring us around after dinner (setting off at 11pm) to shop at the local night market, visit the monument of the king and to eat the number one phadthai in bangkok till 2am. considering the fact that he's a total stranger, he had been very hospitable and friendly. very rare indeed.

29th dec: starstruck
kudos to the decor team! =)

30-6th jan: korea
2 words: cold and fun!!!

the biggest takeaway from this trip is that i learnt how to SKI!!! how cool is that? haha. i must now frequent snow city to practice skiing should i forget my skills one day. i mastered skiing within a span of 2 hours and managed to ski on a slope approximately 2-3 storeys high. okay i'm so proud of myself. :P however, skiing is not without falling down and crashing into people and skis. i was screaming excuse me to the people in my way whom i couldn't avoid with my inability to turn but most couldn't understand english at all. my knee is still aching from the fall. and i got crashed into by a snowboarder. skiing boots and skis weigh a ton. imagine having to haul those 2 items plus the stick and journey up the slope for 5-10 mins before sliding down again in 20 seconds. but given the fact that its a once in a lifetime opportunity to ski on a real snowy mountain, i thought it was worth it and kept going at it for 3 hours. haha. i believe i developed muscles from it.

this trip is definitely an eye-opener with its temperature that ranges from -9 to 0 degree, witnessing the falling snow, snow covered pathways, ice-capped mountains and the endless atlantic ocean (unlike in singapore where the trawlers and ships block boundaries between the sky and sea). korea is definitely a place with breath-taking sights and beautiful people.

[pictures to be uploaded at a later date]

officially employed as an orange airport guide. but not officially deployed to a particular terminal yet due to the inefficiency of some employment agency which i shall not name. their lack of ability in proper staff, training and schedule management resulting in a loss of time, money and resources.
